Peachytart Recipes

Steps:

• Make pastry:
• Cut butter into bits and freeze. In a food processor pulse together flour, sugar, and salt. Add frozen butter and pulse mixture just until it resembles coarse meal. Add 4 tablespoons ice water and pulse until barely combined. Transfer dough to a bowl and stir in just enough ice water to form a ball. Flatten dough into a 6-inch disk. Chill dough, wrapped in plastic wrap, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day.
• Make filling:
• In food processor blend filling ingredients until very smooth. Filling may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring filling to room temperature before using.
• Halve dough. On a lightly floured surface roll out 1 piece of dough (keeping other piece chilled) into a 12-inch square (about 1/8 inch thick). Using a 5-inch saucer or plate as a guide, cut out 4 rounds and transfer to a baking sheet. Roll and cut out 4 more rounds from remaining dough in same manner, transferring to another baking sheet. Prick rounds all over with a fork and chill 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Halve and pit peaches and slice thin. Spread each round evenly with about 1 1/2 tablespoons filling, leaving about a 1/4-inch border, and arrange peach slices, overlapping slightly, over filling. Cut butter into bits. Sprinkle each tart with about 1/2 tablespoon sugar and dot with butter. Bake tarts in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, 25 to 35 minutes, or until crusts are golden and peaches are tender.
• Serve tarts warm with accompaniments.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F Spray a 7x11-inch tart pan with butter-flavored cooking spray.
• Cut 1-inch square notches in the corners of the dough. Press 5 sheets of the phyllo into the pan; fold edges over toward the center of the pan. Spray dough with cooking spray; sprinkle with 1 teaspoons cinnamon-sugar, repeat. Press phyllo against sides of tart pan to secure.
• Bake 10-15 minutes, until golden brown. Cool toss fruit slices with remaining cinnamon-sugar, spoon yogurt into shell, top with fruit. In saucepan, over medum heat melt preserves and brush on top of fruit.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Roll out pastry and line a nine-inch tart pan. Prick the bottom, line with foil and weight with dry beans or pastry weights. Bake for about six minutes, until the pastry looks dry but has not begun to color. Remove foil and continue baking about six minutes longer, until the pastry is pale gold. Remove from oven and lower to 375 degrees.
• Slice peaches uniformly about one-half-inch thick and toss in a bowl with lemon juice.
• Combine pecans, brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix half this mixture with the flour and spread on the bottom of the tart shell. Arrange the peaches slightly overlapping in a pattern over the pecan mixture. Sprinkle with the other half of the pecan mixture and dot with butter.
• Bake about 30 minutes, until the filling begins to bubble. Allow to cool until barely warm and serve with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Open can of peaches and stick a sharp knife into the can to cut peaches in chunks.
• Pour cake mix in bowl and add peaches with juice to mix, adding spice if desired.
• DO NOT ADD OTHER INGREDIENTS LISTED ON CAKE BOX.
• Follow baking instructions on box.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• In a bowl, combine the peaches, sugar and flour; toss to mix.
• Add lemon juice and stir to combine.
• On a floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 15-inch round, about 1/4-inch thick.
• Place the pastry on an ungreased baking sheet and spoon the peaches into the center, leaving about 2 inches uncovered around the perimeter.
• The fruit will be stacked high but will reduce in volume as it cooks.
• Fold the uncovered edges of the pastry up to cover as much of the fruit as possible, pinching and tucking the dough as necessary.
• Dot the top of the fruit with the butter pieces.
• Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• Do not undercook.
• Cut into wedges and serve hot.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, rub together the flour and butter until it looks like fine breadcrumbs, then mix in the sugar. Add 1 egg yolk and 1 tsp water, followed by the next yolk and 1 tsp water until the dough just comes together. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface until big enough to line a 23cm tart tin. If the dough rips, simply patch it up. Cut away the excess pastry. Line with greaseproof paper, fill with baking beans, then bake for 10 mins. Remove paper and beans. Prick quite a few holes in the base of your tart, then bake for another 10-15 mins until biscuity.
• While the pastry cooks, make the filling. Whisk the sugar and butter together until you get a pale paste. Beat in the eggs and finally add the almonds and flour. Spoon into pastry case, arrange the peach slices across the top in a pattern and bake for 30-40 mins until golden. When cool, brush your preserve or jam across the top. Serve with a little pot of crème fraîche on the side and eat it quick before anyone else gets their hands on it!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Bring a small pot of water to a boil over high heat. Using a small, sharp knife, cut a small "x" into the skin at the bottom of each peach. Place the peaches in boiling water for 20 seconds. Pour into a colander and rinse under cool running water. Starting at the "x," peel the skin from the peaches and discard. Slice the peaches and place in a small bowl, sprinkling with the 3 tablespoons sugar and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the remaining 5 tablespoons sugar with the flour, Earth Balance, nutmeg, and almond extract. Using your fingers, rub the mixture together until incorporated and set aside.
• Dust a clean work surface with flour. Roll the pastry dough out into a circle about 13 inches across, trimming the edges so they are even. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper. Spread two-thirds of the sugar-flour mixture on the bottom of the crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the edge. Place two-thirds of the peaches over the flour mixture. Sprinkle the remaining flour mixture over the peaches. Add the remaining peaches on top. Fold the outer edge of the pastry dough in over the crostata to create a crust, pinching excess dough to secure.
• Leaving the crostata on the parchment paper, transfer to a baking sheet. Sprinkle the sliced almonds on top and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, about 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Cream butter, sugar and nutmeg until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Beat in flour until blended (mixture will be dry). Press firmly onto bottom and up sides of an ungreased 9-in. fluted tart pan with removable bottom., Place on a baking sheet. Bake on a middle oven rack until lightly browned, 10-12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack., In a large bowl, toss peaches with sugar, flour, cinnamon and extract; add to crust. Sprinkle with almonds., Bake tart on a lower oven rack until crust is golden brown and peaches are tender, 40-45 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. If desired, serve with whipped cream.
